Liverpool have been linked with Spanish international and Real Madrid star Dani Ceballos this month and the latest reports seem positive for the Reds.

The 21-year-old midfielder joined the Los Blancos from Real Betis. In his first league start for the Los Blancos, Dani helped the team beat Alaves 2-1 and he was the one who scored both the goals in the contest.

Unfortunately, he has mainly been a bench warmer under the management Zidane, who has preferred the likes of Kroos, Casemiro and Modric in his midfield.

Yesterday, Diario Gol reported that Ceballos has decided to leave the reigning European Champions if things do not change for him.

The Spanish source mentioned that he has asked his representative to look for offers and his phone has not stopped ringing. It is further mentioned that Dani has got five proposals on the table including the one from Liverpool who want him to replace Coutinho.

As reported by by Diario Gol last week, a positive aspect for Liverpool which indicates that the move could happen is that the player would look with good eyes to sign for the Anfield club.

Dani has got an enormous release clause of 500 million euros in his contract (£443million) but since Real see him as a bench warmer, Independent understand that they could sell the player for the same price they signed him for i.e. 18 million euros.
